Survival Strategies Annual Convention

Successes from the 2009 Convention in Las Vegas, NV

"I truly feel I have a better understanding of our company, our condition and the importance of expansion. I feel so invigorated to implement new ideas and jump start our practice." -Clinic Director

Craig Ferrera speaking.

Kevin Hulsey, PT, DPT and Director on the Board of Directors of the APTA briefing on the association and its future.

"My oh my! I knew it would be a refresher but the knowledge and plan I take back to apply is energizing in a time that most feel powerless." – PT, Owner

"Having my staff present here in Vegas for fun and learning but most importantly to review the technology and get back on track with all the data we already know plus all the new and (not so new but never applied) ideas we learn from each other!" –PT, Owner

"Everything in the conference was reinforcing all of the tech and info I have learned before through courses, webinars, etc. Good to be around a positive influence and intention. I have more increased abilities, got great team building outings. This fires you up to go back and implement and do even greater than before." – Marketing Director

"I am so glad that I am not alone in some of my struggles as an owner. I have some tools that I can go back and use in my clinic to help increase efficiency based on the round-table discussions." –PT, Owner

"I feel like I’ve learned a lot from this conference. I have a lot of ideas of new things to implement in marketing and how to take care of some of our existing problems in the office with paperwork errors. I have recently done the Admin Program with Survival Strategies and this has been great to have right after to reinforce some ideas." –PT, Owner
